Magic Elf Glamping

"incredible experience super nice host great place to relex, peaceful We stayed an additional day"

"Aucun."

"Being right in the middle of the forest. The view was incredible. It was so quiet and private. Giovanny was also extremely helpful."

"The distance to the centre of Mindo - it was a long walk. You can ring for a taxi but ideally I would want to be nearer the main town."

"Great views and close to nature; feeling of being in amongst a cloud forest. Helpful owner Giovanny. We managed to see some fireflies in the evening, and lots of birds in the daytime"

"Amenities could use upgrading, eg shower wasn’t hot and we had to move rooms; the fan in the new room didn’t work properly; window screens had holes so mosquitoes could come in"

"Such a unique property! Nestled in the middle of what feels like a forest, the views out of the dome are just gorgeous, all around you, birds, butterflies, fireflies and even capybaras appear. The kitchen was very helpful and the open deck was a perfect spot to sit and observe the hummingbirds that appear to feed. Giovanni, the owner, was the warmest and nicest person who made our stay super comfortable."

"The location is a touch further from town, about a 30min walk each way which was part of the appeal but can be a bit of an inconvenience. Maybe bicycles could be provided? The room can get quite warm in the day even with the fan provided. However, that shouldn’t be a problem if you’re spending time out and about/sitting on the deck."

"The surrounding nature was great. Great view from the bed. Very quiet and relaxing. you can see colibries very close on the terrace, and in the night you can watch fireflies from your bed."

"Unfortunately the electricity was cut in whole Mindo, so we partially didn't have electricity, but that was independent of the accommodation. The path to the accommodation is not so good in some parts, but fortunately the way is not too long to reach the place. A taxi during the day was 3$ one way."

"The property is spectacularly set within a natural jungle in the cloud forest. The host, Giovanny is wonderfully responsive and friendly. The property is immaculately maintained and very comfortable. We had a beautiful 4 day stay in our dome on the hill. The property is very quiet and peaceful. Transportation to and from the center of Mindo and to attractions is very easy and affordable by taxi. Giovanny was very helpful in arranging anything we needed during our stay and he had really great suggestions for our time in Mindo. He offered transportation to and from Quito at a very reasonable rate and we took him up on the offer. He provided a very comfortable and enjoyable ride from Quito to the property and he even made a stop for us at the center of the world. We would definitely come back and stay again."

"Nothing..it truly was a perfect experience. There is nothing we would have changed."

"Magic elf glamping is one of the best experiences I have had (birds, fireflies, forest walks). The room is spacious, comfortable, and very well maintained. Giovanny was kind and generous and made us feel very welcome. Thank you!"

"Nothing"

"Giovanny was very kind and willing to help with everything. The location, walk distance from the town but so quiet."

"Shower not made for big people:)"

"The place was absolutely amazing; the nature outside our dome was gorgeous. It was amazing to have a stream, a waterfall, a little lake, fireflies, and hummingbirds basically all for ourselves. And the host was so friendly and accommodating, even moving us to a different dome on his own initiative so that we'd get to see more colibris. The bed in the dome was really big and comfy, and you sleep looking outside which was amazing. There's also an option for sleeping outside on a kind of net bed. It was completely incredible and I'm already looking into coming back soon and bringing friends."

"The location on Booking was incorrect, which caused some confusion and meant that we weren't quite aware of how far away from the centre we were. (~30 min walking rather than ~15-20 min - closer by taxi). That said, the location is great, it would have just been good to know better in advance. The correct location is close to the Mariposario and the Teleferico, to the southeast of the centre."

"The room is really magic. The view incredible and the bed super comfortable. Get some snacks in town as this is really Glamping, not a hotel with all the expected niceties. You’re a bit out of town center but cabs are easy and cheap and it’s fantastically quiet and peaceful. Giovanny, your host, was fantastic and made everything so easy for us. There’s a nearby waterfall, river rafting right next door and the fire flies at night are truly magical!"

"This is glamping, so it’s very comfortable, has running water and nice bath room, but not hot water."
